Today we had a new milestone. My mom and I went to Olive Garden for lunch and Parker got his own kids menu with crayons! He was so excited! He colored using his red and orange crayons and would hand me the crayon he wasn't using when he was done. He also got his own kids cup with a straw- which he didn't really use- he hasn't quite gotten the hang of using a straw. After he was done he was playing peek-a-boo with my mom. He would hold the appetizer menu up to his face and then he would put it down so we could see his face. It was SOOOO cute, and he was so proud of himself. He loves peek-a-boo : ) Crazy how fast they change and grow- I don't think I am ready...

So sWeEt

The other night Parker was in such a playful mood, and having fun so we got a few cute shots. Also there is a video where he is super cute, and I am trying to get him to point to his nose- he is really good at it, I guess he is just proving to me that he is not a performing monkey : )

Christmas Time!

LaUGhTeR...

Is the best medicine~ I think that Parker has the CUTEST laugh- well, I actually think that everything about him is the cutest ever- and NO I am not biased- it just is that way. Anyway, the other night I was playing a version of Peek-a-Boo while he was in his high chair and he was just laughing hysterically. It was SO cute that I had to share.

Parker loves sock- I am not sure what it is about them, but he loves to play with them- they are rarely on his feet because he likes to take them off and play with them. He loves it when I am folding laundry and there are socks to play with. The other night, we were getting Parker ready for bed and he took his socks off and gave them to Joe so this is what happened-

So then Parker thought that it was so funny and they were playing around and so this happened-

Is that not the CUTEST face EVER!!! Yes, Yes it is!

Yay! I have finally seen Twilight- I went with my mom and my sis's (one actual sis- other- brother's girlfriend, may as well be : ) Anyway, I didn't go with HUGE expectations because you never can tell how the movie will do based on a book that you LOVE- so we went and saw it and I really did LOVE it. It was a lot of fun, and I really enjoyed the movie and am excited that they are going to make another.

PiCTUreS

There have been too many posts without pictures so here is a little slide- I dug some of these photos out because I made on of those picture books on snapfish, so I found some cute pictures of Parker when he was so tiny- SO CUTE!!

I Succumbed...

Ok, I started hearing Christmas music, and I love Christmas music, and everthing about Christmas, so I succumbed and have changed the blog over to Christmas- my house isn't decorated, but the blog is : )

All though the night sleeper?

Who knows! All I can say is that for the last week Parker has slept in his bed, through the night without having to sleep with us. Fantastic? It is~ I didn't mind Parker sleeping with us, he was always warm, but he did sleep in horizontally and so in our king sized bed, I had about a 1 foot wide space. Can you say side sleeper?! Anyway, I am not sure why he is suddenly sleeping through the night, or why is is suddenly on more of a schedule with his naps, and that he now has to take his nap in his crib. This is all new territory for me and I feel like somehow talking about it will jinx me and suddenly he will go back to being a fussy sleeper. So, I will enjoy it and just figure that Parker has decided to be a better sleeper because he knows that I was this close to just letting him cry a little longer when he woke up (although I probably wouldn't have because I feel horrible letting him cry- )

Parker is so sweet! He is the most cuddly, snugly, huggy little person I have ever known. I am so thankful that he loves to hug and give loves. It is the fun when he is drinking from his bottle and I come up and he has to hug me while he drinks. Last night Joe and I were on the couch and he hugged Joe and then grabbed me to hug me at the same time. SO SWEET! Anyway, this is just a quick little post on something about Parker that I love!
